The Secretary of State to the Acting Secretary of State

San Francisco, June 7, 1945.
[Received June 7—1:28 p.m.]

3. I have just talked with Soong. He would prefer 11 o’clock Saturday morning. Please make this a firm commitment at the White House. He will come from San Francisco to Washington in our C–54 flying from here at 6 o’clock San Francisco time Friday afternoon.

My personal judgment is that the President should be completely frank with Dr. Soong and discuss all angles of Soviet–China–United States relations with him.
